1. Status and acceptance
Tinkobox operates this website and provides digital marketing, web development and related services. In these terms, “Tinkobox”, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to the website operator and to the contracting party identified in the applicable proposal or client agreement.
By using this website, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please stop using the website. These website terms do not replace a signed proposal or client agreement. If there is a conflict concerning paid services, the signed agreement controls.
2. Website use
You may use this website for lawful informational and business-enquiry purposes. You must not disrupt the website, attempt unauthorised access, introduce malicious code, collect data through harmful or excessive automated means, infringe another person’s rights or use the website or its content to misrepresent Tinkobox.
Website information is provided for general information and may change. It is not professional legal, financial or tax advice and should not be relied on as a guarantee of any result.
3. Enquiries, proposals and services
Website content describes services in general and is not a binding offer. An enquiry does not create a client relationship. A project begins only when the parties accept a written proposal or agreement and any stated initial payment or onboarding requirements are completed.
Project scope, deliverables, timing, fees, revision limits, expenses, dependencies and acceptance criteria will be stated in the applicable proposal or agreement. Changes outside the agreed scope may affect cost and timing and require written approval before additional work begins.
4. Fees, invoices and cancellation
Deposits, milestone payments, recurring fees, taxes, payment dates, cancellation charges and refund eligibility are governed by the applicable proposal or client agreement. Unless that agreement or applicable law says otherwise, payments for work already performed, committed third-party costs and completed milestones are non-refundable. Work may be paused when an undisputed invoice is overdue.
Nothing in these terms limits a right or remedy that cannot lawfully be excluded, including any mandatory consumer protection right that applies to you.
5. Client responsibilities
Clients are responsible for providing timely access, instructions, approvals and accurate information, and for having the rights and permissions needed for materials they provide, including copy, trademarks, photography, video, personal data and software. Delayed feedback, missing materials or third-party dependencies may move the delivery schedule.
Clients must review deliverables and promptly report errors. Clients remain responsible for legal and regulatory review of their business, claims, products and published content unless the signed agreement expressly assigns a specific review to Tinkobox.
6. Intellectual property
The Tinkobox name, logo, website design, copy and original website materials are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. You may view them for ordinary website use, but you may not reproduce, sell, publish or commercially exploit them without permission.
Unless a client agreement says otherwise, Tinkobox retains its pre-existing tools, methods, templates and know-how. Ownership or licence rights for final project deliverables transfer only as described in the applicable agreement and, where stated, after full payment. Third-party materials remain subject to their own licences.
7. Third-party services and results
Social networks, search engines, hosting companies, software providers and other third parties control their own systems, policies and changes. Tinkobox does not control or guarantee their availability, approval decisions, reach, rankings, audience response or continued features.
Marketing and development involve variables outside Tinkobox’s control. Unless a signed agreement expressly states otherwise, examples, estimates, targets and past results are not guarantees of future performance, revenue, leads, traffic or search position.
8. Warranties and liability
The public website is provided on an “as available” basis. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Tinkobox excludes implied warranties concerning the website and is not responsible for indirect, incidental or consequential loss arising only from use of, or inability to use, the public website.
For paid services, the warranties, remedies, indemnities and liability limits in the signed client agreement apply. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, including liability for fraud, wilful misconduct or gross negligence where applicable.
9. Suspension and termination
Tinkobox may restrict website access where reasonably necessary to protect the website, users or services. Either party may end paid services only as permitted by the applicable proposal or client agreement. Terms that by their nature should continue—including payment, confidentiality, intellectual property and liability provisions—survive termination.
10. Governing law and disputes
Unless a signed client agreement states otherwise, these terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of the Philippines, without limiting any mandatory protection that applies under other law. Before starting formal proceedings, the parties should first try in good faith to resolve a dispute by written notice and discussion. Unresolved disputes may be brought before a court of competent jurisdiction in the Philippines, subject to any different dispute process in the signed agreement.
11. Changes and severability
Tinkobox may update these terms to reflect changes to the website, services or law. Material changes apply from the effective date shown above and do not retroactively change an existing signed agreement. If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue to apply to the extent permitted by law.
